gain boost for the expression pedal toe position

[rudomat]

hi,

i´m running my hx fx in 4CM, using my expression pedal to toggle between a rhythm sound in heel down position (less gain, very little delay, etc...) and a lead sound in toe down position (level boost, much delay, etc...)

 

now for my higher gain sounds i´m searching for a solution to be able to add a gain boost as well for the toe down position...but i guess there´s no boost or distortion pedal that offers a mix parameter, so i could set it to 0% in heel down position, is there...? 

 

is there a way to bypass a block with an expression pedal in one position...?

 

thanks for ideas!! ;-)

why not just use a gain block, and have it go from Heel 0% (0db)  to Toe 100% (Xdb, as much db boost as you need) that you want it to add for gain

There's a Gain block in the same menu as the Volume block. Unlike the Volume block, it allows you to boost as well as cut.

Right so you could run from -3db to +3db from heel to toe.  or whatever range you wanna create.
